Im sure that I'm not the only one dealing with this, but I wanted to write this anyway to see if I could hear it from you all... I over-ate tonight at dinner and I am feeling totally guilty... I had a salad, that was a good start- and I made turkey meatballs, of which I had 3... But I had a whole bunch of tortolini with it and to make matters worse, I made a cherry pie and literally ate about a quarter of it myself... And oh yeah last night I had pizza and ice cream for dinner... I have been working so hard at sticking to all healthy foods and for the most part I adhere to it really well... People tease me at work because I usually turn down the myriad of snack foods around the office. But I can't help feeling I did a disservice to my little growing girl because I ate so much... She doesn't seem too upset right now with all the kicking she's doing... probably on a sugar high... But I'd love some reassurance that I'm not the only one and that I'm doing a good job at this "mommy" thing so far
Re: Feeling guilty...
I'm gonna worry about watching what I eat after my baby has arrived, we only have a few months left!!! Enjoy your food

That being said - I think we've all felt our share of guilt when we haven't ate according to plan.
I got results that I failed (hate that word) my gestational diabetes test today. I bawled my eyes out thinking I'm a terrible mother already and this is because of my poor diet and exercise during pregnancy.
Then I took a step back and realized that I need to cut myself some slack. So much of pregnancy is BEYOND OUR CONTROL so we all need to relax and just enjoy this time with our LO. And don't sweat the small stuff
